Maria Moynihan is Features Editor with Irish Country Living of The Irish Farmers Journal, and a columnist and journalist with Irish Country Magazine, winning the title of Magazines Ireland Journalist Of The Year 2015 for her work.

Having graduated with a first class honours degree in journalism from Dublin City University and gained invaluable experience working with The Kerryman, Maria joined the Irish Farmers Journal team in 2005 and has never looked back.

She is passionate about providing a platform for Irish farm families and food producers to share their stories; whether it’s a kitchen sink start-up or a multi-million euro enterprise. As Features Editor, she also enjoys mentoring new talents in Irish food to develop regular recipe series aimed at the Irish family.

A native of Tralee, Co Kerry, in her spare time, Maria can be found cycling and long-distance running; mostly because it means she can eat what she wants after. She is also the editor of Furniture Crush, an interiors book featuring 12 colour-popping upcycling projects by Joanne Condon, due for release in summer 2018.
